OH HEY, MAYWhen I was young, I had big dreams: I was going to go to the University of Alaska, drive a pink convertible, and marry Michael Jordan. When I was old, I realized I was an idiot. I went to UT, I drive a black Elantra, and seeing as I wont be mature enough to get married for at leeeeast 50 more years, my odds of tying the knot with number 23 arent lookin that good. (Homeboy probably wont be alive and dunkin at age 100.) POINT BEINGbesides the fact Can you see the joy on my face? that I was a pretty delusional childis MARRY ME MICHAEL! that you should FOLLOW YOUR DREEEEAMS...but more importantly, adapt when you realize your dreams are complete bullshit. On THAT note, we dedicate this issue to all of you ca-razzzy kids who are crossing the stage this month, and I wanna say WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD! But not the kind thats all seven strangers picked to live in a housemore like the soul-crushing, pants-required professional world that thus far Ive found to have a depressing lack of toga parties and keg stands.

Check out our guide to landing the gig of your dreamsfrom interview dealbreakers to how to dress for success and ways to rock your resume. (Helpful hint: Avoid popped collarsand papyrus.) PLUS get the lowdown on the coolest companies with the sweetest perks that are hiring students like you NOW!

HIT UP OKCUPIDGetting laid is a lot harder sans trashy co-eds and trash can punch, but luckily there are plenty of horny people in the real world tooand theyre just a click (for a dick) away!
